A popular base amongst people setting off to Kimberley, Broome has many allures. The area is a hub for all sorts of fun experiences. Here are the best eat and drink hot spots in Broome for dining on oysters, big brekkies at sunny cafes, and chilling with your favourite brew.
Broome's Chinatown is a smorgasbord of indulgences. You are treated to more than the usual Oriental delights. Head over to popular eateries such as Mr Saigon for a global menu boasting a variety of Japanese, Chinese, Malaysian, Indonesian and Aboriginal dishes. When choosing accommodation in Broome, check out the Cable Beach hotels offering a convenient location which makes your foodie tours a breeze. You will find that popular options like Oaks Cable Beach Resort, are convenient and comfy.
There are plenty of lovely spots in Broome to chill with a drink. Matso's is one of the best in Western Australia for craft beer. Dubbed the most remote brewery in Australia since 1997 this place looks over pretty Roebuck Bay. The Moontide Distillery is another fab spot for nursing your favourite drink to gorgeous views of the surroundings. Curated cheese boards and gin prepared to perfection are some of the allures. The Broome Surf Life Saving Club is another cool spot to chill with your besties and enjoy a sundowner. A rotation of food trucks at the site means you treat the foodie in you to some delicious meals in between sipping your pina colada.
Broome is well-loved for its collection of seafood restaurants. The Wharf Restaurant for example is a good place to visit if you are undecided about what you want to eat. This eatery celebrates the vibrant migrant community of Broome with a range of ethnic dishes given a typical Aussie twist. Fish with chips or even rice, gorgeous barramundi in rich coconut gravy and other mouth-watering options will leave you feeling quite satisfied.
No holiday to Broome is complete without a meal at an Oyster Bar. The Sydney Cove Oyster Bar has uprooted itself to get relocated in Broome almost 4000 kilometres from its original place. But the location is all that's changed, the menu and the quality of meals offered remain exceptional. Make sure to do the rounds explore and try the different dishes and flavours on offer, you will be pleasantly surprised at the variety.
Broome may not be on par with the coffee culture of Melbourne, but you can still look forward to some exceptional brews by the skilled baristas of Broome. The Kimberley Coffee Company is a small scale boutique coffee shop offering customers quality blends and favourites made from high-grade coffee beans. Others include Dragon Fly Café while Green Mango too is known to whip up a pretty good cup of your favourite brew.
